2025 Updated Breakfast Under $1.00

On the USDA Website, their thrifty grocery budgets range from $25.70 to $72.80 per week ($3.67 - $10.40 per day) per person. The two factors that determine the amount allocated are age and sex. With such a small amount of money allocated daily for food and my attempt to eat healthily, I need to plan each week carefully. With the Bird Flu hitting America hard recently, the egg is no longer a humble star but is turning into a luxury. A dozen eggs cost $5.49 or $0.46 each.

Here are some of my tips and trips. 1- Free-Bee Pick Up Over the last month, we have been blessed with several Free-Bees. First, a friend gave us a dozen eggs from his chickens. In addition, we picked up several photos with discount codes from Walgreens and CVS. Next, we used our local grocery store coupons for several free food items such as seltzer water, ice cream, etc. Then, we picked up toothpaste and eyeliners from ...

Meal Planning: #287

Menu Plan #287 NOTE- 1- Click on the picture and get a link to a post sharing the recipe. 2- Although all prices were correct at the time of the blog postings, the current cost of preparation of these dishes may be higher due to inflation and location. August USDA Low Food Plan According to this plan, our family would have a budget of $185.60 per week. We elevate our dining experiences by including fresh fruits, vegetables, and higher-quality meats. Since we have health concerns and are active individuals, we limit our processed food choices. Here is what we did this week to make our week easier: Breakfast Options: Yogurt Muffins Egg Sandwiches Lunch Options: Grilled Chicken Salads Chicken Salad Monday Hamburgers Roasted Potatoes Corn Tuesday Street Tacos Salad Wednesday Enchilada Salad Chips w/ Salsa Thursday Leftovers Friday Chicken Parmesan Pasta Sal...
